Monica Potter’s Wiki and Age

Monica Potter was born on 30 June 1971, in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, which means that she is 48 years old and her zodiac sign is Cancer. Potter, whose nationality is American, is best known as an actress, and in that field she has worked notably on “The Last House on the Left” and “Patch Adams”.

Net Worth

Over $3 million.

Ethnicity and Background

Monica is Caucasian, and has blonde hair and blue eyes.

She sometimes dyes her hair and a shade or two lighter, and has platinum blonde hair, which also looks good on her. She was born into a family of Irish ancestry, to Nancy and Paul Brokaw – her mom was a hospital secretary, whereas her dad invented the first flame-resistant car wax. She has three siblings, sisters Kerry, Jessica and Brigette.

Monica Potter

As of her education, Monica was a student of the Villa Angela Academy and Euclid High School, and spent some of her formative years in Arab, Alabama.Reportedly, she had ambitions to become an actress from an early age, thus acting in Cleveland Play House when she was in elementary school. At the age of 12, she began working at a flower shop, and later on in a sub sandwich shop. She then modeled, and worked on several commercials, which resulted in her relocating to Los Angeles in 1994. Her meteoric rise to fame began in 1995, when she appeared in the music video for “Tall, Tall Trees”.

Social Media

Some of her latest posts on Twitter include a photo of her when she was a teenager. She jokingly added that she’s a “kewl mom,” and that she loves embarrassing her kids with her photos. She also promoted the products she made for her Monica Potter Home brand.

Instagram

She has recently posted a photo of herself and her sons taken in the ‘90s, and went on to add just how much she loves them. Her followers seem to have loved the photo as they went on to leave numerous sweet messages. Besides that, Monica shared a selfie in a gorgeous pink dress, which her fans also loved and complimented her on her looks.

Relationship Status

Despite being a public figure, Monica prefers keeping some things behind closed doors and being secretive regarding some topics. However, we do know that she has married two times – in 1990 she married Tom Potter, but their marriage ended in divorce eight years later. In 2005, she married Daniel Christopher Allison, but they divorced in September 2018. She has two sons from her first marriage, and one daughter from her second marriage. She doesn’t share anything that might indicate her relationship status as of today, which has led many to believe she’s single, but who knows what the future holds. Monica is seemingly very happy alongside her three kids and that’s all that matters.

Happy birthday to my little nugget ! I can’t believe you’re 14! I am so blessed that you are mine and I’m so incredibly…

Quotes

# Quote
1 [on who deserves the 2013 Emmy for Supporting Actress in a Drama Series] I love Anna Gunn. She’s great. And we share the same manager, so I feel like there’s a sisterhood there.
2 “If something strikes me as really funny, very intriguing or really touching, then I just go and do it. It’s never about managing my career in a way that this would be a good move. I have enough people telling me what to do, so I think that when I read something, if I admire the writing and who’s directing it, I just go for it.” Interview, April 2001.
